Gaston's eggs

Tim: At least breakfast was good today. I guess.
Tim: The smell of rain somehow makes scrambled eggs much more awesome. Also, how is Gaston still alive if he ate so many eggs?
Tim: Maybe he doesn't know what a dozen is.
Tim: Or a barge.
Jennie: LOL

Dave gets introduced to Minecraft

Dave: I think I just punched a chicken.
TalkingDog: Chicken puncher.
Nyperold: Kung Pow Chicken: Enter the Fist
____
Dave: And... I got killed by a zombie.
TalkingDog: brainz
Dave: In retrospect, digging a big hole in the sand was probably not my best plan for surviving a monster attack.
TalkingDog: Zombies don't like swords. You should make one.
Dave: I was trying, but I couldn't figure out how.
Dave: I guess I'll watch some videos now to find out what the hell to do.
Sam: LOL
Dave: I managed to build a workbench. But I couldn't find sticks. And everything beyond that requires sticks, apparently.
Dave: I punched the fork out of plenty of trees, but no sticks.
Randy: LOL
TalkingDog: Sticks are made from planks.
Dave: Ooooh. Thanks.
Dave: I absolutely love that resource collection involves PUNCHING THINGS.
Goosey: LOL LOL
_____
Dave: Oh man, you lose all your stuff when you die? My precious, precious things! That I punched various objects to collect!
TalkingDog: You can go pick it up, if it hasn't despawned.
TalkingDog: Items despawn in 5 minutes.  
_____
Dave: This tutorial guy needs to do more teaching and less telling me about how if I don't learn what he's about to teach I'll die.
Goosey: LOL
TalkingDog: That doesn't sound like a great tutorial.
Dave: Because I already learned that part the hard way.
Maryam: Are you still trying to figure out how to make sticks?
LaZorra: "Are you still trying to figure out how to make sticks?" is the best out-of-context line I've seen for a while.
LaZorra: IT IS SO HARD TO MAKE STICKS
Goosey: LOL LOL
Dave: Whoa. I made a door.
Goosey: Yay a door!
Dave: I punched the stuff out of a tree and somehow made a door. That's awesome.
Goosey: LOL
Goosey: I am glad you are enjoying yourself punching the stuff out of stuff.
Dave: LaZorra: It IS hard to make sticks. I mean, I thought punching trees would be enough. But no, first you have to punch trees to get wood, then you combine the wood into planks, and then from planks you can make sticks.
Randy: LOL
Goosey: Making sticks is SCIENCe.
Goosey: Okay, Goosey is going to make herself go to bed now.
Dave: How do I pause. Does it just auto pause?
Randy: nights!
Goosey: Dave: Esc.
TalkingDog: It'll pause if you're out of window too, but not if you have certain things open. (Inventory, crafting window, and similar.)
Dave: Ok cool.
Goosey: Dave: Also, pressing F3 will show your coordinates, and F5 will change the camera view
Dave: I wasn't sure if it actually paused on the options screen or not.
Goosey: yuppers
Dave: COORDINATES
Dave: Those could be handy.
Goosey: yus
Goosey: HAVE FUN

See you in March!

(This is from a transcript on March 1st of this year)

wintermute: OK, I need to be off.
wintermute: See you in March.
wintermute: BYE!
Dave: It is March.
wintermute: Dave: And I can see you now.
wintermute: QED.
Goosey: LOL!
Goosey: Night!
wintermute has left.

5-hour sheep

goldfishy: Anyway, I should try grabbing the 5 hours sheep still available to me so I can function tomorrow - because apparently that is desirable?
goldfishy: Night night
Nyperold: Seeya!
Randy: Sleep!
Randy: night!
goldfishy has left.
wintermute: A five-hour sheep?
Nyperold: You know, before the alamb goes off.
wintermute: She mutton be very tired.
Nyperold: Wool, that's to be expected.
Sentynel: These puns are bleating awful.
Randy: You could say they are baaaad
Goosey: Bet you guys feel sheepish.
wintermute: That's not a pun.
Goosey: Says ewe.

Telling Dave

Goosey: hahahah http://www.rantsfrommommyland.com/2010/12/is-there-app-for-baby-dialing.html
Sentynel: Goosey: LOL LOL
Goosey: Seriously this is the best blog ever.
Dave: But my blog has WAY more swears!
Goosey: Dave: Your blog only has WAY more technical swears. If we count almost-swears-but-not-cause-we-can-say-these-in-front-of-the-kids they are way ahead of you.
Dave: Darn.
Sam: She told you.
Goosey: Now I feel bad.
Dave: I have been told.
Dave: Wait, feel bad about what?
Goosey: For telling you.
Dave: Telling me I don't swear enough?
Dave: Don't be silly.
Goosey: hehehe
Sam: It hurtses the Daveses feelingses.
Sam: Yess it doess.
Goosey: lol
Dave: I'll just have to try harder to swear more in the future, that's all.

There is still toast.

TalkingDog: In response to our lack of interesting food to eat, my brain corrupted a pair of lines from one of the LotR trailers. (That is, they're not actually paired in the movie.)
TalkingDog: Elrond: "There is nothing for you here. Only bread." Arwen: "There is still toast."
TalkingDog: So I had toast.

Oops . . .

* Sam just got a fortune cookie that said, "Oops... Wrong cookie."
